Elijah Clark and McCormick SC

 A lot of today was a Skye day.  We took her down tho the lake for a good long swim & splash session.  Even got her to bring a stick back to shore 6 times!  That’s really good for her.  She’s pretty long on Golden and short on Retriever.  

We went up to McCormick SC, a town about 10 miles north, to see a tire garage about a new valve stem.  That took 10 minutes and $15.  Then a Food Lion grocery store.  An hour and $200 later we came back to camp.  

After lunch Skye got another swim.  She needed a good walk around the park to start drying off after that.

Later this afternoon we got a new neighbor.  He has 4 dogs and a huge Siamese cat with him.  No human company, he left the wife at home.  Oh, wait, she arrived with her own car.  

The jet skis have a great time in this lake.  This is the Storm Thurmond Reservoir in the Savannah River on the GA-SC border.

I tuned in to the Artemis launch just as they reached orbit tonight.  That was about 9 minutes after liftoff. It should make the next several days very interesting   

I started this hours ago.  Then I stayed out in my chair until 9:30.  Nice and comfortable in shorts and T-shirt.  No bugs either.  Occasional thunder!








That’s the driveway to our campsite



She doesn’t rally like that first step.  I used all but one piece of cribbing on the trailer leveling.  Nothing left to make a step!
